I see that my X5 has the B160 firmware thing in the phone status. Does that mean that i can only use B160 roms? Or can i use any of the others as well? ...also same with the kernel (not too sure what a kernel is) but can i use any of them also?
Thanks.
no, you can use other ROMS, B160 is just one of them. You can also use any of the kernels out for your x5.
Oh thanks for the reply.
So i have the B160 Rom that is posted in the development section atm. But my wifi has never connected to my Zyxel router ever since i bought the phone. And i want to try installing this thing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1043238
So do i just install as instructed? or do i have to uninstall something first?...sorry im so noob.
I dont know much about this stuff but i want to try the thing that ive linked to because someone in that thread says "Has anyone noticed some improvements on wifi stability with b136? On 135 there was like no chance connecting to zyxel with wpa2, but with 136 it seems stable even with wpa2..."
So it seems it fixed their Zyxel problem i guess. So i want to try it ^^

I reported that with my zyxel, but i celebrated too early. I got it connected only at the first time after flashing, but not again... But without security it seems to connect fine. I use only MAC filtering to stop any unwanted connections...

hey guys ive had a look through a number of rom forums and other stuff like that and i cant seem to get the answer im looking for. so let me tell you my story so you guys can understand what im looking for:
ok so i first got into xda forums and all that because i bought my legend, and it was awesome and what not, and then i get to uni and oh wtf i cant connect to the internet. so then i did some research into proxy settings and one thing led to another and i found out about these roms and rooting and whatnot.
anyways after playing around with a lot of roms and mods and yeah i found indigo bean to be the best rom for me, it would be that cyanogenmod but thats outdated and the camera doesnt work, and it would be azure if not that but azure doesnt let me connect to my uni network at all and yeah. oh and the proxy only works for browsers so its not 100% working.
ANYWAYS ive come to realise after unrooting and rerooting and back and forth that i prefer the original rom ie htc sense and all that, everything stock. however if i go stock it means i have the proxy issue again. now i found out about this "transproxy" app which from my reading actually allows you to use not only the browsers but also apps such as google maps, andorid market etc. however this still requires root access i read as well.
so now my main question is:
what is the most updated, stock rom with like apps to sd and you know all those standard features people like to have with root access which will let me use this "transproxy" app??
if someone could give me a clear answer or maybe some info on transproxy or any other help with my problem that would be awesome
thanks
EDIT: i just realised that im not meant to ask questions in this area of the forum.. its still related to development though lol
um well if its in the wrong place i guess one of the admins can move my question then? cheers
maybe trying this?
http://android-proxy.blogspot.com/2010/09/proxy-settings-android-application.html
only thing you have to do is rooting, afterwards you can install stock rom
yep thats the app i was talking about. the "transproxy" thing
ok so ive put this rom on
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735299
and ive also installed the transparent proxy app
so tomorrow ill check to see if proxy works and if it does then well that was pretty easy and i probably didnt even have to post this thread
im back to square one i think, well not quite
this rom im using is kinda dodgy
like its stock, but its not stock stock
like theres a number of things that are annoying me
so uhhh yeah i reckon i might have to find another close to stock but rooted rom

Thanks for the detailed, easy to follow statement there.
You could try "cooking" your own ROM. It's actually quite easy. If you find the HTC-WWE 2.03 ROM (shipped-roms.com) for the Legend, and look into dsixda's kitchen (here) you can just put the stock ROM in, just add the rooting thing ("2. Add root permissions") and then build and flash that; you'll have the latest (ish) stock ROM with root access. Nothing else changed.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh thats interesting.. ive cooked my own before but that was only with other peoples roms. i didnt know you could grab one of those stock roms you find on that site and turn it into a .rar thing. well obviously you can do that i realise now but yeah nah thats pretty cool. ill play around with it, thanks
So I'm getting the sleep of death on my tablet, Im currently using ICS 4.0.3 FLEXREAPER-R12.5, though this shouldn't matter, because im getting it on every ICS rom I have tried.
Upon googling my problem i came across a similar post here on xda, and someone mentioned that it is most likely a issue with my bootloader. Unfortunatly, I have no idea what that means.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1547859.html
Any help you can give me, would be greatly appreciated.

Running 12.5 and had the sod on all the bootloders, tried all the hc and ics bootloaders and all gave me sod. Civito uploaded me a version. 022 or something like that. It works with no sod and everything else works very good. I am looking for the link to the zip and will post in a short when I find it.
Past this into the address bar of the browser and it should download to your download folder. Copy to external SD card and flash only takes a second. Or go to the flexreaper in developers page 180 for the link.

hi there. i have a question. is there a way anyone can port totally stock miui v4.0? why? because i need stock wifi driver. it supports ad-hoc, but with this new aurora wifi driver i just can't and can't astablish connection (i used the guide and still nothing -.- ).
i was on cm7 for a while but it is buggy (.35 kernel). so can anyone help me? i know porting whole rom is a big deal, so just to complement old aurora or stock miui driver in rom would be ok. anyone?

I already tried using the system's wpa_supplicant file from MIUI but with no luck...
Maybe we need more files from it... I don't know! I will make some more experiments though...
yeah i tried that but no result. i really don't know why. first i tried with password, then without it. same thing. i would really appreciate it ^^

just check the form to be exactly the same with other profiles (spacing, tabs, "" etc)... And also I tested it without security.
i copied the other form from wifi from my school and just changed everything or added some lines - still only with copy/paste. still nothing

[ROM] Elite ROM SX Final Release (FIXED) - 2012-04-15
thanks guys
I'll have a look at them
do u mind if I ask some more question ?
I guess you said no
brdnacer the version which you are using now is stable ?
i mean how is the condition of battery or transition or something else ?
Im asking these question because I have a limited internet connection
and I can't try whatever I want
I'm so sorry
i am using this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562661 . battery is so so. lets say 7/10. games and android itself is running smooth, basicly nothing to complain about but ofcourse you must have official 2.3 already once before installed.
and about this limit... go for coffee or cola sometimes to a bar with wifi, and use it as much as possible + i have password for my school wifi a few of us managed to get password. and now we can use internet for free even at school
thanks for special advice
as soon as possible(when I go to a cafe or sth like that ) I will try it but its confusing my mind that it's said that this rom will have no more updates :| but as you say, I guess it doesn't need anymore
anyway, have a good day
niether one of those 2 will get updates
Okay, I been using Wifi a lot lately, and as other people.. in Aurora I been facing Wifi getting "stuck" it just grays out.. and there won't be an actual connection... so, I did research and I installed WiFix Manager
Simple Instructions
Download and install application - WiFix Manager
Give root permission
Click Advanced Configurations and enter your country code (instead of US) - Find your code here or here
Click Change Country Code
Click Check For Updates
Click Install WiFix
Restart phone and you are done
I been testing this for 3 days, I left wifi on for hours and even overnight. Before when I wake up in the morning it would always be greyed out.. now it's always nice blue reception! Let me know if this fixes it for you and if it does and we get positive feedback maybe we can convince dzo to implement this fix into his ROM.
FYI, I am using 4.1a, but I don't see why it would not work in later versions.
Wifix
I get way higher speeds in Aurora ICS 5.0 when using this app, it reminds me of the difference when i installed an Elora wifi-fix on an earlier version of Aurora.
My main problem in 5.0 is the touch screen problems, even after dzo's updates.
have you tried to replace the 1 wifi conf file for an older version?
I know that this fixed some wifi issues for many people including me. I can't remember the file name but it can be found in one the aurora thread in this section, I think.
I you want to try I can look further

I think this might be the one (refered to in Dzo's Aurora ICS for u8800 - General Discussion thread), but it has some issues. Disconnect and 3g doesn't turn on auto while out of range. If you have other tips, please tell.

I have tried a couple custom stock XT1575 ROMs. Everything installs great except when my phone is called, the dialer
won't open. I hear my phone ring or vibrate depending on what it is using, just nothing comes up to allow me to answer
it. The latest custom stock ROM I installed today is moto_x_pure_edition_custom_stock_x1575_mphs24.107-58-1_v1-odexed.
Has this happened to anyone else, is it a known problem with the custom stock ROMs? Any help is appreciated. I can't
use the phone so it's just sitting in a corner.
Have you tried puretrue rom . I have flashed 3 roms 2 custom stock Rom and one nexus rom.But never faced this issue . Maybe clean install will help you.

Every time I've installed the ROM, everything was wiped first, including the install I did earlier today.
I've tried a few other ROMs from here, didn't quite like them (not sure if the one you mentioned is one I tried) so wanted to use the custom default Motorola ROM which I liked. They are rooted and have super user. If you know the link to that ROM you mentioned, I don't mind looking into it. Thanks

Can't believe this is still a thing! This is an old *ss small issue which has been discussed over and over again!
Now with this Help thread open I hope people will learn!

Yes, I understand it's been around a while. I've searched for answers and all the suggestions have not made a difference for me. I have also searched a little on here using different terms but could not find anything either. If you know the answer, can you assist? I understand you may have seen this a few times but not everyone has, like me. I just want to know the fix, is that so bad?

Your described issue seems just the usual "no default phone app selected" , which solution is to just set one. If something else is going on I can't help, I've never encountered other root issues to this (not by experience not by reading). Sorry!
But we could go through this and try troubleshooting.
You are using a custom stock so probably already got root permission.
1) Install logcat or matlog
2) start recording and call your phone right away using a second phone while leaving the screen on
(try upping the screen time to 5 minutes let's say, this way there is no loginfo we are not interested in there beside the call intent)
3) After that, hangup and stop recording the log then share a link to the file here (file ! Don't paste in pls)
Let's hope there is a debug warning or error which will tell us what's actually going on!
On the other side of thing, you do have a XT1575 right ? Or you are using XT1575 Ron on XT1572 ? Not a biggie but quit relevant for modem file!
In the morning I'll give it a look, now I'm heading to bed (2AM here)

Thanks, just got home from work myself. I am using the XT1575. The default phone app is chosen. I'll see what I can

Thank you, I'll download now.
Thanks for the assist all of you. I decided to install the TruPureXMM-2.9 ROM and so far I'm liking it. It has a few quirks but the dialer works
from the get go which is the main thing. Those ROMs from the other Moto style installs must have something inherently wrong designed
in them not to work right from the start.
